Theatine Church Munich

The Theatine Church of St. Cajetan is a Catholic church in Munich, southern Germany. Built from 1663 to 1690, it was founded by Elector Ferdinand Maria and his wife, Henriette Adelaide of Savoy, as a gesture of thanks for the birth of the long-awaited heir to the Bavarian crown, Prince Max Emanuel, in 1662.

A small chapel contains the tombs of King Maximilian II and his consort Queen Marie. The crypt also contains the Prince’s Tomb and other members of the Wittelsbach family.
